When Zhang Chi got to the garage it was still raining He reached out the carand felt the rain Aside froht Thinking about tonight, he took a deep breath and calmed his nerves
Not far away he saW Gu shi+ and another fe an umbrella as they walked toward the subway station He slowed down He rolled down theas he caive you a ride Look, your clothes are all wet” The taller Gu shi+ had been sharing most of the umbrella with her co-worker so her left shoulder and back et, but she hadn’t noticed
Gu shi+ patted her shoulder indifferently, and seeing his car was not blocking traffic, turned and said to her co-worker, “Let me say a feords with him Just a moment” She went out in the rain and stuck her head in the passenger-sideShe earing a sky blue silk blouse with only the top when she bent down, he still couldn’t help but look
Gu shi+ noticed and glared at hiht Are you prepared?”
“What’s there to prepare? I havefrom the police academy”
Gu shi+ kneas not exaggerating Word of his physical staation tea-distance running, which other ues hesistated at Later everyone learned he was on the army sports committee at the academy, and loved to run full marathons in his spare time He never missed the annual competition
She clearly had not been referring to his physical conditioning “I don’t have any experience in catching cris to keep inyourself That’s in an ideal situation If you can’t do both, then keeping yourself safe is number one, in my opinion”
Zhang Chi’s original thought was to express his thanks once he sa sincere she looked, but he unexpectedly reconsidered “Thanks for the warning I still remember that mother’s plea I think I can do it myself”
Gu shi+ stepped closer and raised her voice “You think you’re the only one ants to avenge the victiation techniques and legal weapons to round up criminals But the world doesn’t alork out the way you want it to I still advise you to prepare yourself o as smoothly as you think they will”
Zhang Chi looked at her coldly “A detective who is afraid of taking risks and worries about his safety is not a detective Everyone has different values You can watch me display mine on the scene Okay, if you don’t want a ride, I’ll be on my way” He as Gu shi+ silently watched his sports car speed away
Hands on the steering wheel, his callous, arrogant expression gradually slackened, replaced with unbearable dejection He felt a dull pain in his heart as he watched her figure recede in the rearview ht, even though it was a case of “if you don’t fight you won’t beco each other at all The situation noas nothing more than a temporary roadbump
